The rolling hillsides of Washington County are an incredible provider of everything from wine grapes and wheat to farm-raised beef. As a largely agricultural community with incredibly rich soil, Washington County, NY’s farmers grow a wide variety of crops and produce. Naturally, much of it can be found at our local farmers markets.
With everything from spa products made out of beeswax or goat’s milk to a multitude of organically-fed meat options, our small-town community markets hold something for everyone. After all, these events allow you to hear live music from talented local musicians, sample food from a variety of vendors, and take home delicious fresh produce grown right here in the premier agricultural region of New York. All in one spot!
Plus, shopping at a farmers market is a great way to invest in the local community and support the farmers who work so hard all year long!
SEASONAL / SUMMER FARMERS MARKETS
Canal Street Marketplace
Thursdays 4 to 7 PM at 63 Canal Street in Fort Edward. From early June to September.
This farmers market is more than just a place to shop for fresh produce and artisan products. The Canal Street Marketplace has an incredible history tied to its namesake: the canal system!
This beautifully restored marketplace building was actually moved to Fort Edward just after 1900. At that time, it was located in nearby Fort Ann, directly obstructing the path of the under-construction Champlain Barge Canal. The “barn” was removed and reconstructed in Fort Edward at the former Canal Wharf. There, it was used as a woodshop for the canal’s boats, buoys, and other equipment for the canal and locks until 1978.
Today, the building has been fully restored and continues to live on as a community gathering space. Each week in the warmer months, this venue hosts vendors, live music organized by Little Theater on the Farm and children’s programs presented by the Fort Edward Free Library.
Plus, each year in mid-October, Canal Street Marketplace hosts Locktoberfest, a family-friendly harvest festival with artisans, farmers, live music, food trucks, local beer and free children’s activities!

Running north-south along the eastern side of Washington County and parallel to the Vermont border, Route 22 runs almost the entire length of the state, from the Bronx to Canada! Naturally, today’s Route 22 is quite historic. Native Americans (and later the Dutch and other settlers) used this important rural route for travel, trade, and to get their farm products to market. Nowadays, Washington County’s Route 22 Farmers’ Markets takes place along this route in Salem, Granville, and Whitehall.
So, come check out this community staple! The Route 22 Farmers Market is a great place to stock up on fresh produce, meat and dairy products.
